Return to Story Vignettes
Royalty and Slavery
The Gurogs were only the first to follow the undead.
Now, the Firstborn's eyes turned elsewhere – to the Tumerok jungles and human forests.
With Geraine's aid, the Burun came to worship the Gurog gods.
In return, they too would have others to serve them.
Even a slave feels royal if he has another to command.
The Drudges were all too eager for deities to revere … if it meant a chance to kill humans.
They built idols to the Burun, and threw down Cragstone and the other human cities.
The Firstborn looked on … and laughed.
Their forces had vanquished Dereth at last.
